“Elizabeth …turns around….” The woman commands, but Bette was stunned, she couldn’t move a muscle let alone turn around. Her heart was beating so fast that it hurts. It hurts in many ways, more mentally then physically. The woman turned her gaze to the standing aside group of women, searching their eyes…searching for some help, but they were even more stunned than Bette…The woman sighs, taking few steps further and when she approached  Bette, she put her hand on her shoulder. Bette immediately wringed her shoulder and divert the touch.

“T…I can’t be in this room right now…please, explains to this…woman here what’s the situation…I’ll wait outside…I think I need some fresh air anyways…” Bette said, not even look at the woman behind here, it wasn’t necessary…Bette was already said goodbye to this person so many years ago, she had no need of her right now…Bette walked away, not saying a word, she just kissed Tina on the cheek and walked out of the door. She took deep breath of the cool evening ear walking down the street, looking around for place to sit. She saw an empty bench near the building, so she went there, away from the busy street… It wasn’t long after that, when she heard footsteps approaching her hiding-place…When she looked up, Kit was standing there, holding Bette’s jacket…

“You forgot that…” Kit said, handing her the cloth…”This evening is colder than usual…” Kit said, approaching the bench…

“I’m wondering why…” Bette said, chuckling sarcastically…”why are you here anyway…I don’t think you just came to bring me the jacket…and how did you find me… I thought I hide myself good” Bette said, throwing the jacket over her shoulders.

“This is the nearest place you probable could be, so I just decide to check…and beside that Tina told me where you are…this woman of yours is surprising me every minute…”

“Yeah…she’s fascinating isn’t she…?” Bette said exhaling…

There was awkward silence between the sisters. Kit was the first to say something. She knew that Bette was more upset then she’s showing. She loved her mother, she do, but she had already accepted the thought of her death…she hadn’t enough strength to face this woman now, not now…

“Listen Bette…I know you’re upset and angry, but you have to talk to someone…I know that was big trauma for you, I know I was there when she left…she didn’t only left you, she left me and daddy too…I know also how much you loved here, you was devastated when this man called us to inform for her death… I know that you went to the funeral…” Kit said, hearing Bette gasp…
